About Coto Makassar
Coto Makassar is a beef-and-offal soup from South Sulawesi. This version recorded by Budaya Indonesia combines tenderloin with liver, intestines, spleen, heart and tripe in peanut-thickened broth.
Coriander, cumin, pepper, lemongrass, galangal and garlic give the broth warm, savoury depth. A separate tauco sambal brings fermented soybean flavour and chilli heat.
The meat and offal are tender and cut into small pieces. Scallion, celery, fried shallots, vinegar and lime finish the hot soup, with ketupat and burasa alongside.
